And I'm not her biggest fan or anything, but the scene where Aviendha is brow beating Rand about something or other in the desert somewhere in... book 3 I think, and all of the Aiel around them are expressionless but obviously amused always makes me smile, so I have good feelings about her just for that. Something about Aiel humor always tickles me.
Lolgraendal. I did not much care for Egwene until she decided she had no interest in Rand, and after that she has gradually improved each book. I do know a spoiler about her future that I haven't yet read up to, but I'll not press for them. I think I know enough already, only having two definite spoilers.

I like Aviendha, I just don't like her relationship with Rand; I found it
Spoiler for aviendha:
incredibly out of character that she would so betray Elayne and ji'eh'toh by humping with him that it actually extracted me from the novel
and I still haven't forgiven Jordan for it. And Aiel humour is just my kind of humour. What isn't to get, really.
